A braking device, particularly usable for skates including a shoe composed of a quarter articulated to a shell in turn associated with a supporting frame for one or more wheels. The device comprises at least one rod-like element which is rotatably associated with the quarter and is slidingly associated with a guide formed on a wing which is associated with the frame. The rod-like element is kinematically connected to a braking element articulated to the frame. When the quarter is rotated backwards, the rod-like element causes the braking element to rotate so that it interacts with the ground.

A braking device in a skate assembly having a forward end, a rearward end, and an extension which extends from said forward end to said rearward end, the skate assembly comprising: a shell for supporting a user\s foot portion, a quarter arranged above said shell for supporting a user\s ankle region

A braking device in a skate assembly having a forward end, a rearward end, and an extension which extends from said forward end to said rearward end, the skate assembly comprising: a shell for supporting a user\s foot portion, a quarter arranged above said shell for supporting a user\s ankle region and pivotally connected to said shell such that said quarter is pivotable substantially rearwardly into a rearward position and forwardly into a forward position about an axis which is substantially transverse with respect to said extension of the skate assembly, and a plurality of wheels mounted below said shell; the braking device comprising: a body element pivotally connected to a fixed portion of the skate assembly and having a portion extending rearwardly from a point at which the body element is connected to said fixed portion; a braking element carried downwardly by said rearwardly extending portion of said body element for disengageable engagement into braking contact with a surface supporting said skate assembly; an actuator comprising at least one rod-like element, said actuator being movably connected at a location intermediate its length to said skate assembly and having opposed end portions connected respectively to a rearward portion of said quarter and said rearwardly extending portion of said body element, whereby said body element pivots with respect to said fixed portion of the skate assembly when said quarter pivots with respect to said shell and said braking element is engaged into braking contact with the surface supporting said skate assembly when said quarter is pivoted in said rearward position and said braking element is disengaged from braking contact with the supporting surface when said quarter is pivoted in said forward position.
